Description

For the digital sector, usability and user experience are more than new fads.

There's plenty of talk about these topics and their perceived value to businesses, but how important is usability really? What impact does it have on software and web designers looking to improve their performance, ROI and staff efficiency?

In this FREE MD event, sponsored by PRWD, Paul Rouke, User Experience Director at PRWD, Judith Garman of AbilityNet and Pete Bagnall of SurfaceEffect, will be providing a range of real-life examples and industry insights which will help reveal some of the tangible benefits businesses can gain by embracing usability and user experience.

Through the course of the evening you will see why usability can play a significant role in the likes of e-commerce websites, B2B websites, lead generation sites, bespoke web applications, intranets, internal software systems and the development of new web and software applications.

The event will be followed by drinks, some food and networking.
